Welcome to Valley News Live StormTeam Extra!  Right here, you will find weather information and conversation you can’t get anywhere else.  There is only so much time in a newscast to share everything we want about the atmosphere and its impacts on our lives.  With StormTeam Extra there are no limits.  We’ll be going in-depth, beyond the 7-day planner, explaining what causes weather phenomena and help you prepare for severe weather situations.

Here’s what you can expect.  StormTeam Extra will be a more laid back, fun look at the weather around us.  We will post our thoughts and experiences, along with extra graphics and photos of interesting weather.  Expect video blogs to preview StormTeam forecasts, explain long-term global patterns, investigate local weather events, demonstrate severe weather safety, and take you behind the scenes here at Valley News Live.

And we want this to be a two-way conversation.  Send us your comments and weather questions!   You can reach Hutch, Mick, or Lisa at hutchj@valleynewslive.com, mickk@valleynewslive.com, or lisag@valleynewslive.com.  We will try to answer you right here on StormTeam Extra.

This is just the beginning.  We hope you’ll join us as we continue to move forward and reach higher.
